Nrl height?

Question

is 165cm at 15 years old too short to become a good nrl player and also what's the height of matt bowen??

Answer 1

it doesn't matter how big you are

so long as you can take one for the team

Answer 2

Preston Campbell would be shorter than that so it should be alright and you'll still grow at that age.  Some of the best tacklers in the game, e.g. withers and dallas johnson aren't tall.

Answer 3

height doesn't matter its the size of your heart and belief in yourself that counts.

Answer 4

Preston Campbell is 165cm as is Ian Lacey - surprisingly Bowen and Hodgson are 175 - they look smaller :)

So you are only 15 and already the same height as some good players - so don't worry

Answer 5

Just look at Ian Lacey and Matt Bowen, those 2 are power houses. XD

You will do fine if you have some good skill with your feet and know how to take a tackle. =]

Answer 6

ian lacey is 165cm, + u will grow taller

Answer 7

If you are good enough and you believe in yourself then it doesnt matter how tall you are, sure it helps, but you got to make yourself better at the things the big guys cant do, make sure you are quick, good ball handling skills, and have good agility.

Many great players have been around that size, Preston Campbell, Allan Langer, Clive Churchill, Matt Bowen, Hazem El Masri

plus you will still grow for about 3 years, so you might have a growth spurt in that time. but you should reach into the 70's soon, which is height of most halfbacks in the game, not to many are into the 180's.

I would say Bowen is around that, not to much bigger if any.
